And he was there with YY forty days and forty nights; he did neither eat bread, nor drink water. And he wrote upon the tables the words of the covenant, the ten Commandments.
And he gave unto Moshe, when he had made an end of communing with him upon mount Sinai, two tables of testimony, tables of stone, written with the finger of Elohim.
And YY said unto Moshe, Come up to me into the mount, and be there: and I will give thee tables of stone, and a Torah, and Commandments which I have written; that thou mayest teach them.
Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine:
Which had the golden censer, and the ark of the covenant overlaid round about with gold, wherein was the golden pot that had manna, and Aaron's rod that budded, and the tables of the covenant;
But if the ministration of death, written and engraven in stones, was glorious, so that the children of Yisrael could not stedfastly behold the face of Moshe for the glory of his countenance; which glory was to be done away:
Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the Torah, and the service of Elohim, and the promises;
And YY said unto Moshe, Hew thee two tables of stone like unto the first: and I will write upon these tables the words that were in the first tables, which thou brakest.
These words YY spake unto all your assembly in the mount out of the midst of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a great voice: and he added no more. And he wrote them in two tables of stone, and delivered them unto me.
There was nothing in the ark save the two tables of stone, which Moshe put there at Horev, when YY made a covenant with the children of Yisrael, when they came out of the land of Egypt.
